This animation has made my life much easier now! Thank you so much for this explanation!

It was simple and very good explanation. I'll use it to answer my younger child who asked me why all goods were not free. It's the issue of scarcity.

Very much easier and fun to understanding a little about PPC Theory from this video..thanks

Love your video! Thanks a lot! Big, big help! Just subscribed!

You know why this video can be a little confusing let alone the accent? Because the production possibility curve can be a straight line!!! A straight line production possibilities curve shows a constant opportunity cost if we compare corn and wheat, since the resources to produce corn and wheat are very similar!!! Whereas a bowed-out curve shows increasing opportunity cost, the resources to produce bread and the IPAD or whatever are completely different, that’s why it is concave!!!

Nice and helpful video

Amazing, i wish i knew how to make videos like this. Do you have any special formation to be able to do videos like this? Or how does it work? Anyway, great job. Interesting and really good explanation!!

Thanks a lot for your compliment! You've really encouraged me to continue to make videos =). I used Adobe After Effects (animation), Illustrator (illustration) and Audacity (sound editing) to make the video. I read some books on design and writing to get inspired as I'm not an artist by training. I'm trying hard to learn design but there's really a lot to learn...I'm kind of overwhelmed...Thanks a lot for commenting..that's awesome=)

Cool video!

Beautiful !

I think you meant conVEX. Concave is a curve going inward, not outward.

This is great video. It helped me a lot. Thanks for the well-made video

I really love your video... but i don't understand about concave curve... why all the different jobs will go to produce tablet? and why some of them from the firm of bread will go to produce tablet ?? Really need your help !　Thank you !!

Well, let's take your classmates in your class as an example. Some will be good at writing, some at sports, some at programming etc. Suppose your teacher needs to create a software. Naturally, she'll pick the guy most talented in programming to do the job. This one guy is very talented and hence he'll be really productive. Think about 1 Mark Zuckerberg beats 100 mediocre programmers. What if she needs more people? She'll pick the 2nd best guy, so on and so forth. Sooner or later she'll run out of programmers. If she needs more people, she'll have to pick from the remaining pool of people in the class, who are talented in other things like sports and arts but not programming. So these people, if chosen to program, will be far less productive than the first guy that she choose.

because the more people that produce tablets, the less capable they are of making it because not every human is perfect in making tablets

This very old, I know. But in case anyone else stumbles has this question. The simple answer is because the resources often are not fully cross compatible. You may have some specific resources/technology that will increase your production of one good, but not the other. This causes the line of possible production between the two to be uneven. Hence the curve.

Things can be free, if there are rules to follow.

i still dont get that why is it curve??...btw subcribed..very helpful vids

in this example he mentioned that people have different skills, in order for it to be a straight line, everyone would have to have a phd meaning that everyone would be as efficient as can be, but as we know not everyone has a phd, therefore more and more people are required to do the same job.

Since it takes more and more people to make more of one commodity (in this case, tablets), and because as more of the most skilled/efficient human capital (people) are required then to increase production by x amount, and a greater amount with each and every increase of the same amount, and since there is only a finite amount of human capital, in order to add more to one field, you must take away from another, and specifically, you must take away _more_ people for each and every increase even of the same incremental amount, than the same numerical increase prior to the next (or current one), and same for the increase prior to that, and prior to that, etc. For the first increase in tablets of x amount, it didn't require as many more people as it will for the same increase after so many of the most efficient people are taken up (for such endeavor), leaving you with a smaller pool of less and less efficient people (increasing production costs per unit). Hope that helped without confusing you more.

Why can’t I just keep hiring the highly educated people to keep making the tablets? Is it because their salaries will become more expensive or there won’t be people like that available on the market anymore? Bc if there are people wanting tablets there then we could pay their salaries. And also there’s a bunch of people looking for jobs.

Still not got if firstly they were efficient but in ppc there is a assumption that resources and factors remains unchanged now if they r unchanged then ur theory is totally wrong

If tablet were designed to automate bread to increase both bread and tablet

@lozcast7924

It's just a hypothetical example where we are assuming that labour, capital, level of tech are constant.LLets make an exception and work with your example- Even if we automate machines, we would still need more machines (i.e. more capital) to produce bread (those which you will automate), and more economic resources result in the shift of the PPC, which is well explained within this theory. So, the economic model of PPC will still somewhat stand the test of your question.

The expalantion for why the curve should concave is not vivid.... Still unclear about why the curve should be concave....

Your explanation wasn't clear and your accent is quite difficult to understand.

You don’t understand

Why is your accent like this???
